December 1, 2024

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday December 01ST 2024, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

I’m back home where I belong in Sebring Florida today. I returned home from #DFW this past Friday night. I’ll recap my fun with my family in North Texas on my next #TravelThursday in 4 days.

I’m celebrating a couple of anniversaries today:

37 years ago – I arrived in Florida for the first time as an Air Force Airman. I landed at #MIA late on the evening of November 30TH 1987, and I got on base (Homestead AFB) after Midnight that night. It would be my place of employment for the next 36 years and 3 months (aside from 19 months directly after Hurricane Andrew).

The other anniversary has to do with this blog. It officially debuted here on the WordPress platform exactly 17 years ago today on December 01ST 2007. (It moved over here from Myspace.)

I’m excited to be back with my Highlands Community Church family for the first time in 3 weeks. I’m leading Communion this morning. I’m looking forward to returning to a regular routine this coming week – with neighborhood activities on Monday and Saturday, museum activities on Tuesday and Wednesday, and church activities on Tuesday and Friday.

Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth. (Proverbs 10:4 NIV)

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture – whether it’s part of a sermon, a testimony, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord – and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know – then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
